This investigation attempted to use fine spatial scale Quickbird imagery and digitised aerial photography to indicate the location of pine wildlings within a selection of vegetation communities.
The primary aim of the projec t is to develop an automated remote sensing system to identify large pine wildlings in remnant vegetation, using satellite imagery. As such it is a preliminary study of a new application of automated remote sensing.
Monitoring coastal habitat extent and condition has been made a little easier due to the strategic investment in high resolution images for selected priority areas around Australia’s coastline
